Core Tip	The study found that patients who underwent cholecystectomy, especially those who were smokers, had a higher risk of developing colorectal and gastric cancers. The analysis of Korean National Health Insurance data revealed increased risks of gastrointestinal cancer following cholecystectomy, with an association with smoking habits. This emphasizes the need for thorough screening and follow-up in these patients.
